Or is every parent a law unto himself to decide when his rights have been usurped? Nothing could go wrong with that!

Seeing this explosion of bad policy legislation, I get the feeling that Republicans don't see themselves staying in office come election time, and they're trying to inflict maximum damage on the country and its institutions before their greedy little fingers are pried off the levers of power.
